If by *packaging* you mean *distributing* here, then I am very disappointed by your statement. From a package maintainer's perspective, I would consider the lack of a test suite a severe regression, should the latter be removed from source distribution in the future.

I would also remind you that it is that very same test suite that lead to the triage of the regressions with `bottleneck` whilst I was bootstrapping the Debian packaging effort.

Please consider fixing the current test suite or reverting to the old design. The fact that `conftest.py` does not work reliably (see the bug linked above) should be a sign that the decision to jump to this design happened too soon.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,220160378
